Hey everybody. I'm alive. Stuff has actually been happening in my life. Score.
There's no great way to segue an awkward three month gap with no updates, so why don't we just go for the bullet format:
- My best friend (the highly esteemed, yet short lived monbon218) moved here from Minnesota two months ago. She'll be taking my other roommate's bedroom who is moving out for personal reasons. It's been so great having her here. Before August, I hadn't seen her in almost four years (although we talked on the phone several times per week). Surprisingly, there was no awkwardness when I did see her for the first time. It was just like we picked up where we left off.
Monica + living here = no more boring life for me!
- Having Monica here has equated to a fat life for me, though. My weight, while not obese, has reached epic proportions for what I'm used to. I haven't run in two months. So, I fell off the bandwagon. I think i'll wait until January to start worrying about all this.
- I withdrew from school. My calculus professor could not speak English. Math is difficult enough without that language barrier. I'll try again once I can find a professor whose words wouldn't be well accompanied by a gong.
- I've begun volunteering at a shelter / center for abused women and children. It feels great to do something that matters.
- In a strange turn of events, Adam and I are speaking again. Adam is the guy I dated for 4 or 5 months last year. We stopped speaking one day in January with no reason or warning. I thought seeing him again would be really weird, but we went out for a drink one night and it was a lot of fun. We're having Thanksgiving together this year; minus his adonis like exboyfriend, and the chicken entree we ate last year.
- I think I've been disowned by my older brother, who hasn't spoken to me in over two months. There was stupid family drama. I'm not as shaken up over it as I thought I might be.
- I had the honor of being in Adrianne (Chachi42)'s wedding a few weeks ago. It was a wonderful wedding once we got there. My plane broke down on the runway as we were taxiing for take off, and Adrianne had to drive for three hours through the freak snowstorm in October.
All in all, life is good. If anybody still checks this thing for updates, God bless you!
Doctors appointment now; more later.
